I wondered who'd be the first to say that. :)

Bit rich coming from someone who lives on the other side of the world and has probably never been near Ewood Park though.

Sorry RB... it's just that I think that the club just has to act in its best interests regardless of supposed fans sentiment. The threat that you issued is not unlike those issued by others on the possibility of a BFS appointment the first time round. And as alluded to by JW, that had some sway on his board not pursuing him, and they ended up mucking up the appointment. This time round, they must not be swayed by like sentiment.

Not really much to write about... but I've been to Ewood Park twice, spending a trip up from Paris. The first time, my flight was delayed by four hours, and I ended up getting into Speke... ahem, Liverpool International Airport 30 mins before kick off. I still went up the next day, and some nice staff in the Rovers store let me into the stadium for some pics.

Having another opportunity to travel to Europe, I flew up again one more time and watched the Villa game that ended up 2-2 season 2004-2005.

But Abbey who would you like to see coaching us then?

Ray Mathias, Archie Knox? It's like choosing between cancer and ebola.

A Tugay/Souness double team?! Didn't see that hapening?!

Obviously Allerdyce is first choice. If we don't get him to be perfectly honest I don't actually see this TurkoScot wacky duo as any less of a gamble than anyone else to be fair. Souness is an okay manager tactically, although he likes the checkbook which we cannot offer to him any more (well maybe we could spend 10m, it's hard to say), and has a bizarre player signing record (about equal inspiration and dross). Toogs is obviously the greatest footballing genius to grace Ewood park in the modern period. Whether that makes him a good manager I am not sure.

If this is all true (and I guess it might or might not be) then I am beginning to lose my previously super solid faith in JW:

1) Why did he phone Sunderland?

2) Why is he undermining our current manager if he is not sacking him?

3) Why is the club so quiet and it sounds like we are out of control.

Where is JW's previously steady hand? We need some public stabiility.

Just wondering what influence this MB has, if any?

Nothing I don't think. As soon as he got appointed I got told he would not last. As well as being told that from one of his ex colleagues....

Hardly a surprise.

As pointed out to me over the last month, how come the board does not get more abuse for the decision of hiring the plank??

:angry:

I think the 2 points that need to be raised here (Nicko?) are:

If Souness comes in, would he be given a long-term contract, or short-term style till the end of the season ala Kinnear?

Would he be given a transfer fund to spend in January? (bearing in mind not spending could relegate us?)

One additional question i would like answered is whether we are just looking at Big Sam and Souness/Tugay additionally, or are we looking at further managers at all? (Surely this is something you would know Nicko?) :D

I've said just that.

Whose advice did they seek (as Bill fox used to ask Jimmy Armfield)?

What price they get the next appointment right?

Given that I think Ince should go, don't you think that your statement could apply to all but 2 or 3, maybe 4 managers in the PL?

U wouldn't. U would do anything to make sure the board / club made a wrong decision. After all it is a conspiracy against him.

He was a great Scottish midfielder!

If he was good, why did he get 50 caps to King Kenny's 100? He only turned up to about 15 of the 50 caps. Most of the rest he stood in the centre circle. I can remember shouting at the tv aged little (can't remember how old- about 10) "why is he just standing there- why doesn't he help?"

Careful. We might figure out your age. ;)

2 questions;

1 - does Tugay have his badges?

2 - what would happen with the press? At least if he doesnt talk to them he cant continually pUt his foot in it like PI!

At least the ball is rolling....

1 - Did Ince. Maybe thats why Souness would be needed.

2 - See point 1.
